Registration

Early Bird Registration for TLS 2027 will open on February 16, 2027 at 9 A.M., on a first-come, first-served basis and will close on March 14, 2027. Regular registration will begin on March 15, 2027, and close on April 16, 2027, or at sellout. There will be no on-site registration. All registrations must be completed in advance of arriving at the event. Once registration is full, additional registrants will be added to the waitlist.

Educators will use Cvent to both register and select sessions for TLS 2027. The Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) strongly encourages the email address used for Cvent to be the participant's official school email address. Personal email addresses have a history of blocking emails from event platforms and/or marking them as spam.

Registration Fees

To help offset the cost of running a high-quality, multi-day event for thousands of Louisiana educators, the LDOE will charge a registration fee for TLS 2027. This fee will cover:

  • Conference and expo admission
  • Conference sessions
  • T-shirt
  • Lunch

All attendees will be provided with lunch on June 1 and June 2. Special meal options will be provided for those with dietary restrictions. Educators can elect not to eat the meal provided; however, discounts will not be given.

Payment by Check

The LDOE recognizes that some school systems may prefer to submit payment for large groups attending TLS 2027 by check. School systems must complete the Teacher Leader Summit 2027 Registration Check Submission Request form to obtain pre-approval before submitting a system-level check.

Please review the Payment by Check tab on the event website or refer to this additional guidance before submission.

Group Registration

Any administrative assistant or designated attendee can register a group. Please be sure to have all important information, as most fields are required. This template can be used to collect attendee information.

Additional group members can be added after an initial payment by selecting "Modify Registration."

Registration Types

There are several registration types. Most attendees register through this website. 

Nonpublic attendees should use the registration link provided by your school.

On February 15, 2027, presenters will receive an email with a direct link to complete their complimentary registration. Each accepted session includes one complimentary registration for the main presenter. Additional co-presenters may register for $249 per person.

Note: Should a presenter change, please notify ldoevents@la.gov. Once the LDOE has this update, the prior presenter can transfer the registration to the new presenter.

Exhibitors will receive an email with a direct link to submit payment for the booth and classroom lab and register all booth attendees. The first two registered booth attendees receive complimentary admission. Additional attendees register for $249 per person.

Registration FAQ

Registrations are tied to unique email addresses. The application will not let two people use the same email address. If the same email is entered for a second attendee, an "Error" message will display.

To check the prior registration, go to the Registration page and select "Already Registered?" Enter the email address and confirmation number. If needed, select the "forgot your confirmation number" link. The confirmation number will be sent to the registered email on file.

Invoices

Invoices are available on the registration confirmation page. Group registrations should show all members of the group on the invoice. If additional group members are added later, a new invoice needs to be downloaded. 

Waitlist

Should registration spots become available, waitlist requests will be accepted through Cvent on a first-come, first-served basis. Those educators being moved from the waitlist into a registered spot will be notified via Cvent, and registration will be automatically processed. 

Cancellations And Transfers

Cancellations are not permitted, and payment is non-refundable. However, registrations can be transferred. Transfers are handled at the attendee level.
